Cozy handbags and pouches

That’s the title of a Japanese sewing book I recently picked up from Kinokuniya in Seattle.

It’s a tasty book with 60 little items to sew up. My favourite among them being this one.

Don’t the little bird pouches help the whole book live up to its name? They sure make me feel cozy. My Japanese friend Masumi who came over to help me out with some translation cooed over the whole book. Hopefully a completed bird purse of my own will be up on the blog soon.

If you can’t live without it now that you’ve seen it, the ISBN is 483472235X.

    What a cute book! The bird purse is very cute – the naive Japanese sewing style is very endearing. [It doesn't half help that the models they have are very sweet looking creatures - I wish I dimples like that.]
